Christmas Gift Guide - Dad Edition - BLOGMAS DAY 6

Happy Blogmas day 6! 

We are well and truly getting through these well aren't we? I am loving the challenge! 

Now as I said yesterday parents are fucking hard to buy for, why? I have no idea. They are the people you know the most, surely but they are so bloody hard to buy for! 

My dad may even be worse than my mum honestly, every year I will get him a wallet. But not this year, oh no, I will not buy him another wallet to save until the middle of the year to use.

Christmas Gift Guide - Nephew Edition - BLOGMAS DAY 5

Happy Blogmas Day 5 everyone! 

I hope you are enjoying Blogmas so far, I sure am! Drop your links below and I'd love to read some of your posts.

Todays post is  Christmas guide for your little nephews out there. I have a 2 year old nephew and I have already purchased his dinosaur/Spiderman inspired gifts. I had so much stuff I wanted to buy him so there are a couple on this list that I didn't get round to buying. 

Jensen loves his kitchen, which is why I chose the little wooden BBQ set. I thought it was so cute! I love wooden toys, when I have babies one day I'd love for my babies to have wooden toys, I think they look so smart.

Christmas Gift Guide - Mum Edition - BLOGMAS DAY 4

Happy Blogmas day 4! 

Does anyone else find it absolutely so hard to buy for your parents, my mum is a struggle ever year! If I had all of the money in the world I would be winning, but I don't so I have to work with what I've got. My mum is one of those people who say "don't worry about getting me anything" - are you serious mother?! She gave me life, the least I can give her is a box of fucking Lindt. 

My mum is different, she doesn't like typical 'mum' things which is why it has always been so hard. She's not arsed about perfume and handbags, she'd rather a pair of Dr Martens and a book about weird murders in history (never feel weird buying anything like that... honestly)

1. Mumford & Sons CD - £12.99
2. Thomas Sabo Ring - £69
3. Stacey Dooley Book - £14.99

5. Wooden Incense Box - £5.04

In most of these posts I understand they're not all exactly 'affordable' things - not for me even! These are just nice bits and pieces, you know? 

I love Christmas and love trying my best to spoil my loved ones. 

What have you purchased for your parents this year? Let me know and let's struggle together!

Christmas Gift Guide - Boyfriend Edition - BLOGMAS DAY 3

Happy Blogmas day 3 everyone! 

Todays is a little Christmas gift guide for the lads in your life. I find buying things for my boyfriend quite hard because he doesn't necessarily have a 'thing' and I'm like.......thank you that's super helpful. So I end up buying clothes and random things that I think will make his Christmas special. I think I've done a good job this year.

The below include a couple of things my boyfriend already has (Dior Homme makes me think of our first date together!) - the others are just little bits I came across and thought "yeah, someones boyfriend might like these".

Christmas Wishlist - BLOGMAS DAY 2

Happy Blogmas Day 2! 

I will be sharing with you just a few things I would like for Christmas this year. The older I get the harder it is when my mum asks me, my 23 year old self "make me a Christmas list so I know what you want". 

I miss the old days when you would sit down for hours to pen your Christmas list, or sit in your Nannies kitchen and go through the Argos catalogue and pick at least one thing one each page. Just me? No? Didn't think so!

1. Fujifilm Instax Square Camera - £125
